6 months

Well finally a new post. I have been trying to post for over 5 days but we have had severe internet issues. I realize how dependent I have become on the internet when i get angry that it goes slow or doesn't work. So since our last post Bronson had his 6 month appointment! He is still measuring in the 90th percentile in all areas; 98 for weight at 21 15oz (should have fed an extra 2 minutes to push him to 22), and 29 inches which makes him over the 99th percentile for height. He again got his standard immunizations and I added the flu shot for him. I anticipated him being quite the crank the next day but he was a champ and was one of the happiest I had seen him. We had plans on staying in our PJ's all day...which we did but he went through 4 pair!

The aspect that we have the most concern over is his swallow. He still will gag himself and puke everytime we put a spoon in his mouth. The pediatrician said to give it 2 weeks and try again. It will be 2 weeks on monday. He needs to start eating because he has also decided to up his milk consumption to 8oz every three hours and I do NOT make that much. So say a prayer that he starts to eat his rice cereal next week. Otherwise we may have to go to a speech pathologist to see what his issue is.

It was an uneventful weekend. I had a conference on friday and saturday so kris got to babysit. I hope he used his time wisely ( used it to buy me a valentines gift). I am horrible at gifts, meaning that I can't ever wait to give them to a person once I bought them so Kris got his gift this weekend. He got a new robe and Ugg slippers so he can feel comfy.

Bronson had his first swim lessons on Monday. I call them lessons very lightly. Essentially you are just in the pool with him. For the first time, Bronson did not like someone though. I handed him to our instructor who was a 20ish, dark stubble guy and bronson wailed!! He managed to recover and we did a lot of back floating, kicking and underwater excursions.

This weekend should be a boring weekend. The following week will be busy because Kris is going to the slope, Fur rondy starts, and it's my BIRTHDAY!!!

I don't have swim trunks for him yet

I am so happy to be 6 months old
